Re: [xsl] pathDeterminationByGlobalVariable

Hi Manousos,
  Please try this XSL -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan";
exclude-result-prefixes="xalan">

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
	
<xsl:template match="/ROWSET">
  <set>
    <xsl:for-each select="ROW">
      <xsl:variable name="row" select="."/>
	<polygon>
	  <xsl:variable name="rtf">
	    <xsl:for-each
select="descendant::ELEM_INFO_ITEM">
	      <xsl:if test="((position() mod 3) = 1) and
(position() &gt; 1)">
		<x>
		 <xsl:value-of select="."/>
		</x>
	      </xsl:if>
	    </xsl:for-each>
	  </xsl:variable>
	  <xsl:for-each select="xalan:nodeset($rtf)/x">
	    <xsl:variable name="a" select="."/>
	      <xsl:if test="position() &lt; last()">
	        <xsl:variable name="b"
select="following-sibling::x[1]"/>
		  <interior>
		    <xsl:copy-of
select="$row//ORDINATES_ITEM[(position() &gt;= $a) and
(position() &lt; $b) ]"/>
		  </interior>
	      </xsl:if>
	      <xsl:if test="position() = last()">
		<interior>
	  	  <xsl:copy-of

    </xsl:for-each>
</set>
